Buddhism...

"..starts from the recognition of each person's infinite potential. And it teaches the means whereby people can awaken to, and draw forth, the supreme treasure of Buddhahood in their lives.
When people become aware of this treasure in their own lives, they also come to recognize it in others, and so will treat their fellow human beings with heartfelt respect. At the same time, they naturally take action to spark the same awareness in others.
When we make such efforts, the treasure in our own lives is polished, and this in turn enables us to develop still more confidence in our innate potential and dignity. Buddhist practice is thus the path of limitless self-improvement."

The Seven Wonders of the World

A group of students were asked to list what they thought were the present "Seven Wonders of the World." Though there were some disagreements,the following received the most votes:
1. Egypt's Great Pyramids
2. Taj Mahal
3. Grand Canyon
4. Panama Canal
5. Empire State Building
6. St. Peter's Basilica
7. China's Great Wall

While gathering the votes, the teacher noted that one student had not finished her paper yet.
So she asked the girl if she was having trouble with her list. The girl replied, "Yes, a little. I couldn't quite make up my mind because there were so many."
The teacher said, "Well, tell us what you have, and maybe we can help".

"The girl hesitated, then read: "I think the 'Seven Wonders of the World' are:

1. To See...
2. To Hear...
3. To Touch...
4. To Taste...
5. To Feel...
6. To Laugh...
7. And to Love."

The room was so quiet you could have heard a pin drop.The things we overlook as simple and ordinary and thatwe take for granted are truly wondrous!

A gentle reminder :

That the most precious things in life cannot be built by hand or bought by man. Don't be too busy to pass this along.

Hypocrites..

this world is full of them.. why bother? trying hard to concentrate. Read Creative Life b4 i slpt these 2 days.. meaningful, inspiring. but i definitely lack the focus i once had.. WC is gone again. for good.. deleting just the map wun solve the problem.. must do it the hard way.. there are still gots of distractions. Removing them all is impossible.. far from possible.. just have to based everything on faith and jia you ba..

Not doing good is as good as doing bad..

i didn't stop a mistake today...repentance...

Discussion on Youths...

"Even if you have the tendency to make a determination buy only stick to it for two or three days, it is ok as long as you keep refreshing that determination. Those who can keep renewing their resolution have great patience. It is also important to get in the habit of pushing yourselves an extra five minutes. When you think. "I can't do it anyway' I want to go out and have some fun.' that is the time to challenge youselves to keep at it another five minutes. Those who persevere for an extra five minutes are truly admirable. Victory is theirs." -- Sensei

10 essential requirements of a humanistic leader

1) It is our solemn duty to treasure, protect and serve all our members as children of the original Buddha.
2) Be courteous, warm-hearted individuals who can appreciate and respect others.
3) Be cheerful individuals who can bring joy and fulfillment to oneself and to others.
4) Working for the sake of kosen-rufu is the noblest human activity. It is the greatest happiness in life.
5) Always work towards the harmonious unity of the organisation. It is the source of accumulating good fortune in life.
6) Do not commit the four slanders of contempt, hatred, jealousy and grudge. They will erase off all our benefits.
7) Resolve all organisational problems through prayers and dialogue, with the spirit of changing poison into elixir.
8) Be broad-minded individuals with a view that every encounter is a source of benefit for us.
9) Based our action on compassion. It is the source of acquiring the Buddha's wisdom.
10) Everyday is a day to cultivate our life. It is the path to our own human revolution and Buddhahood.

A new resolve

Efficiency 0,
Determination not there,
Can't let this continue,
A new resolve.
A critical next week,
Much to do,
time not there.
Efficiency must improve,
with one only way.
That way,
the way,
i shall follow.

Sorry, i'm dumb..

sorry that i deleted my wc.. no more DOTA... not like i will score a cap 5 this sem or anything. When u can't concentrate on things and when u are just dumb and all tutorials are greek, even deleting my favourite game can't saviour the suitation.

If only i can use time as wisely as sensei..

Each day is a treasure. NO! Each moment is an irreplaceable treasure!
Now, if there is 1 hour, I can encourage many of my dear friends or write down speeches to encourage others.
If there are 30 min available, i can conduct very meaningful dialogues.
If there are just 5 min, I can write and give calligraphy to comrades who are fighting vigorously.
If there is 1 min left, I can convey a message to a comrade who is struggling.
And if there is just 1 second, I can encourage another person using eye contact.
Therefore, I have made up my mind to live each and everyday meaningfully.
Live this moment thoroughly and win no matter what!!

finally..

going to recover from my illness, just have a few of cough and blocked nose that's all..but it's strange. strange that my weight increased by around 1+ 2 kg. shouldn't i feel happy that my weight increase? not that all. It's really puzzling cos it's like a sudden thing. dunno the reason for that. hopefully it's plain weight gain. not like i look like i'm fatter now, esp since i shd be thinner cos of my illness.
organic chem test tmr, unfinished prelab + tut.. why am i blogging here? -_-

Finally..

绝对 Superstar is over, though i'm sure the fever is far from over. definitely a pity that kelly was not crowned the overall champion despite being the better singer tonite. but nvm, she's already a superstar, a sure winner tonite!
